Andouille and Bagasse

Pre-Thang:  Fun to see 2 FNGs chillin’ by the pull up bars as we pull up to the Birdcage.  Colonel also made a post-hibernation Kotter.    Welcome back to the Gloom!  And dayum – the gloom was really gloomy! I was sporting my brand new F3 long sleeve t-shirt.  A fresco 60 degrees but a super thick fog – hanging around.  Crazy silhouettes of the PAX as we worked out.  Some debate about whether or not Hawgcycle would come in hot – and yes he did.  Last man in but made it to the PAX before we started our mosey.

The THANG:

Mosey 1/4 mile to COP1

COP1:  SSH x 25, Lunges x 20, Peter Parkers x 20, and Merkins x 20

Mosey to the LEVEE for some Chevy to the Levee

At the trail near the levee 5 burpees, run to the base of the levee, bear crawl to the top of the levee, run to the base on the other side and do 35 LBCs.

Then 5 burpees, 30 LBCs, 5 burpees, 25 LBCs, 5 burpees, 20 LBCs, 5 burpees, 15 LBCs, 5 burpees, 10 LBCS, 5 burpees, 5 LBCs 5 burpees

Plank and wait for the 6.  At this point Hawgcycle made some comment about what kind of crazy dreams I had last night to come up with this psycho activity.  Congrats –   40 burpees and 140 LBCS.  Solid work!    At some point a few cyclists popped out of the GLOOM and almost took out a guy doing some burpees.  Screeching brakes and the glow in the dark wheels. Bizarre.  I thought it had to be Hawgcycle because he always has issues with bikes but he was coming down the levee at that point.  One more thing – Bisso shipping had a huge spotlight shining on the levee.  It was a cool sight with the FOG and the spotlight as several of the guys came over the top of the levee.  I need to plan someway to get pictures of that next time.  Also some PLANK O RAMA while we waited for the six.

Mosey 1/4 mile to the Butterfly along the Mississippi River.  So much gloom we couldn’t see the river.  The Pax was busting my chops for taking a wrong turn before we got to the FLY.

At the FLY – 11 min with Mary.  Some discussion about whether or not Rev makes more money with original beard, crazy shaved beard or beard-less.

Russian Twists, Bicycle, Dying Cockroach, Flutter, LBC twist x 30 , Penguins, Parker Peters, and Plank Jacks x 20

Long Mosey to the Flag.  Proud of the FNGs pushing themselves today.  Also Tclaps to Hawgcycle who was pushing extra hard for a solid workout on the levee.  2 FNGs – Bagasse is from Vacherie – so he earned a name that is close to Bad Ass but it is really a stinky bi-product of Sugar Cane.  Douille is from La Place the Andouille sausage capital of the world.  Welcome to F3 men!  Hope to see you guys at another workout site or at the very least next week.  Tclaps to Colonel for pulling the Kotter!  FYI  YHC will be at Fri and maybe Sat workouts but I am out of town for the next 10 days.  We need some Q help.  Please step up and take care of the PAX with some downPAINments.

Announcements:  Friday – Roots 530AM at the front of Audubon,

Saturday 7AM City Park with ? — need a Q,

Monday at Pontiff with Hawgcycle,

and we need a Q for next Wednesday.

Shout Out:  Lots of intentions for the members of the PAX and their friends and family.  Pray for health and safety over the Easter/Spring Break week.  A special request to be grateful for all of the wonderful things in our lives.

Extra Credit – Some of the Pax stayed for some extra credit at the pull ups.  Tclaps to you guys!

IF you go out to Hogs for the Cause – please donate to the Fleur De Que team.  Our very own Tito will be out there creating some crazy pork concoction.  Get your swine on!  Tclaps to Tito!
